Carmenta is pleased to announce the availability of version 4.4 of the GIS engine, SpatialAce. The new version brings even more power and performance to developers of real-time 2D/3D geographic information systems. SpatialAce 4.4 comes with a plenitude of new features, making it easier than ever to include high-class interactive map displays in almost any application.

The more important features of the new version include:

 Powerful vector operators which can be used for complex GIS analysis as well as for sophisticated visualization
 Improved moving map functionality, making it easy to implement dynamic, rotating map displays, which are equally suited for desktop and vehicle-mounted systems
 Extended support for military overlays and symbology as defined by the military standard MIL-STD-2525B
 Enhanced interoperability through the Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc. (OGC) Web Map Service (WMS) layer. The new layer provides easy access to the increasing amount of web services implementing the OGC WMS interface.

“We are certain that SpatialAce users worldwide will enjoy the power and smoothness that our new moving map functionality provides,” says Mikael Gråsjö, Vice President and Director of Carmenta Products. “The improvements in the new version makes it easy and fun to build dynamic, rotatable 2D moving map displays which take full advantage of the computer’s 3D graphics hardware. The performance you get with clever use of the 3D hardware when drawing 2D graphics is just stunning.”
